The Truth is the truth whether it is spoken from a pagan or a priest. Even the “legion” demons possessing the man recognized Christ for who He is – “Son of the Most High.” They knew what is true and spoke it out. When you are in His awesome presence you recognize and acknowledge the truth. Whether from the action commandment of “love your neighbor” to the preventative command of “Thou shall not kill” you can not change what each represents — Truth. How the message of Truth is packaged and delivered is of no consequence to those in the body of Christ. Satan will use God’s Word to tempt us while we are in the desert. Jesus said “I am the Truth” and “my sheep hear my voice.” As a follower of Christ, we recognize and respond to the Truth in accordance with the Holy Spirit that lives in us. John said “if we do not have love the Truth is not in us.”

O Father! What thoughts can I hide from You?
Your Word is in my heart and my mind
My soul longs after You.
I cherish Your commandments
You are the way everlasting
Whether I am alone or surrounded by a great crowd of witnesses
You are there
Your mercy makes each day new
Your grace refreshes my heart
The joy of everything You are to me is my strength
Nothing can stop Your wondrous plans for me
Your plans to prosper me and give me a future
Even when I am old and grey
You will remember me because of Your Son, Jesus Christ
Your unfailing love is more than enough to sustain all that I am and will ever be
Abide in me O Holy Spirit
Comfort me in times of need
Guide me in the way everlasting
